According to Edge-Online's unnamed source, the following new gameplay features will be added to the as-yet-unannounced sequel Gears of War 3.
- Underwater missions.
- Mech suits that can be used offensively and defensively
- COG explosives that travel underground to take out enemy cover spots.
- Locust enemies with tentacles that extend to player cover spots.
According to the rumor, all of the new wrinkles in the Gears of War universe will be available in both single and multiplayer modes.
The above story is simply rumor, so keep that in mind, but if seems like at least a realistic direction for the series to go. Ordinarily, I hate almost all underwater levels, but I have a feeling that if Gears 3 does have beneath-the-sea sections, Epic will have re-imagined how that sort of combat can work in a game, much like they did with above-water combat in the first two games. There are a lot of unexplored possibilities, no doubt. Plus, given how Gears 2 ended, with the sinking of the last human city, it makes sense.
Using computer technology and various Eastern fortune telling devices, TheFeed has concluded that this rumor is 70 percent likely to be true.

I need to hear that they are reverting the multiplayer back to Gears 1 gameplay, or I'll just have to look elsewhere for a game that can capture the same intensity.
The big boss
maybe if we are all lucky the next carmine brother who gets maimed and or mutilated will be replaced by justin bieber. Under water makes sense but then again i cant imagine how the hell that would work and hope they really do add tons of new weapons and executions and of course............no host so people can stop acting like gears one's online was so amazing and end the crying over gears 2.

Unbalanced
the underwater parts wil mostly likely be some sort of vechicle or boss. so stop your complaining. And yes in this day and age underwater levels should be coming out more cause the technology is better. and the possibilities are more far-reaching.
can we use some intelligence here people?

Cliff B will announce the new Gears of War Cliff Bar with "extra carbs."
gravy666
This is definitely fake.
No one in their right mind would ever make an underwater level in this day and age.

mechs? HELL YES!

Question for anyone willing to answer: Do you think Cliff B. would be a complete douchebag and not announce Gears of War 3 coming out, but instead some title we know nothing about, or could care less for??
relentless36
hopefully they fix the matchmaking system...

The underwater level is gonna be just like in Super Mario Bros. There are going to fireball stick traps, magic coins and locust octopai.

I hate underwater levels, so I hope thatss just a rumor. But even if it's not, I wouldn't care as long as I get someone from Epic to confirm that Gears of War 3 will indeed be coming out.
backerman
Remember, the city was flood with ocean in end of gears of war 2.
nvserg
thats cool, I'm hoping the online game play will be more players per game play. like 10 vs 10, now that would be sick =o)
death__from__above
by underwater does that mean that you'll control a sub or some locust fish thingy (like riding the brumak) or is it just marcus in a scuba suit doing the same thing that he usually does but with fishes swimming around him?
kookie_munster
